The 2014-15 campaign was a season of dramatic inconsistency for Eintracht Frankfurt as Die Adler finished a respectable 9th in the Bundesliga, securing a top-half finish despite falling just short of a European spot. The year was defined by the phenomenal form of talismanic captain Alexander Meier, whose league-leading 19 goals sensationally earned him the Bundesliga Golden Boot. Meier's scoring prowess single-handedly kept the team clear of the relegation zone despite the club's shaky defense, with the team suffering a slump after his season-ending knee injury in April. It was a turbulent year that saw the surprise departure of manager Thomas Schaaf, but Meier's golden boot remains a nostalgic, unforgettable achievement that defined the club's modern history.
